Butterfly Bush
Commonly known as the Blue Butterfly Bush, this is an open and sprawling evergreen shrub favoured for its lovely flowers. It produces masses of blue flowers which have three pale blue petals and one violet blue petal. The flowers are produced from summer through autumn and resemble butterflies. They are borne at the ends of arching branches that also host dark green foliage. It typically grows to 3 m tall and the same wide, and can be trimmed as necessary. Best performance with this plant is achieved when it is grown in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site that is protected from frost. The unusual flowers make this a highly sought after garden plant for temperate and tropical gardens. It is also great for maintaining in containers or conservatories.
